Lizzie and Lucky: The Mystery of the Lost Chicken

Summary

Shortlisted for the Inclusive Books for Children Award 2024!

Join young detective Lizzie and her adorable puppy Lucky on another mystery-solving adventure! With charming illustrations throughout, and fun activities to try.

Lizzie and Lucky are visiting the Five Freedoms Sanctuary. It's a lovely place for all sorts of rescued animals.

When a local farmer announces some terrible plans for his land that could endanger the surrounding wildlife, our dynamic duo know they must investigate the case. Can they use their detective skills to stop him?

While looking for clues, Lizzie spots some strange footprints and an unusual blue creature that stands out from the rest! But what is it, and where did it come from? Could it be the key to saving the day?

Praise for the Lizzie & Lucky books:
'The author's experience of partial deafness shines through, with helpful but gentle hints about the importance of accessibility and equality. Above all, this is a joyous tale celebrating animals, mysteries, family and friendship (both of the two-legged and four-legged variety!)' - BookTrust
